This term generally refers to money donated to a charity with the provision that the principle will not be spent, but the income from the principle or corpus will be used for the charity.

Thus let's say someone donates $5M to a college. The $5M is the corpus funds and that money can't be spent by the college but instead it is set asside specially. However the $400,000 a year is generated in income from the $5M can be used by the college.

What is the new ruling by sebi with respect to mutual fund nfos?

SEBI has proposed that, a Mutual Fund New Fund Offer (NFO) will be approved only if it is able to attract a minimum level of investor interest. To be specific, it will be approved only if a certain amount of minimum corpus is invested in it by the public. For Equity Oriented funds, this amount is Rs. 10 Crores. For Debt Oriented funds, this amount is Rs. 20 Crores. This essentially means that, lets say ABC MF launches a new fund "ABC Dynamic Equity Multiplier" to the public and the overall corpus to begin with is only 8.5 Crores. In such a situation, ABC MF's NFO Request will be Rejected. They have to return all the money collected by them
